Chapter 2588: Chapter 2524: Can’t Trust Him Anymore
Actually, Chiang Xiao had already guessed that he might have such thoughts.
She pursed her lips and said in a deep voice, "Dad, do you want Brother Xinian to carry such a heavy burden on his heart? To make him feel like it was because of him that you gave up treatnt? Even though he’s resentful towards you, when you fainted just now, he was the first to give you the dicine. Yet you hate him so much, you want him to never have a mont of ease or happiness again, to live under the shadow of driving his own father to death?"
It shook ng Chaojun.
Though Chiang Xiao’s words weren’t pleasant, they always hit the target.
"Little, of course, I didn’t think that way. How could I hate Xinian? I know I’m the one who let him down."
He felt guilty indeed.
"If you refuse treatnt because of what he said, you’ll soon die. By then, even Grandpa will genuinely feel it’s because of Brother Xinian."
So, could ng Xinian’s heart feel at ease like that?
"And besides, he’s going to a war-torn country in a few days. Do you want him to go with worry and unease in his heart?"
She didn’t have to care about all that, but if it affected ng Xinian, it was absolutely unacceptable.
Just like ng Chaojun, whose heart ached, had to put on an act for her.
ng Chaojun looked at Chiang Xiao, deeply moved.
His eyes felt a bit sore.
In the past, he thought Chiang Xiao might just fancy the status of the ng Family or be attracted to ng Xinian’s looks, a shallow kind of love. But now he realized that this girl was truly devoted to ng Xinian, extrely protective of him.
Any harm to him was intolerable.
He lived with less understanding than an eighteen-year-old girl.
"I understand now, Little. I won’t let Xinian feel uneasy." ng Chaojun picked up the bottle of potion and drank it all in one go.
By the ti Chiang Xiao called ng Xinian down for dinner, ng Chaojun was already sitting at the dining table.
The father and son didn’t speak, but this kind of relationship and atmosphere seed to make ng Xinian more comfortable, as they’d been like this for over a decade.
This was better than ng Chaojun suddenly saying sothing to him.
Old ng and Chiang Xiao talked more, just to keep the atmosphere from becoming too dull.
After dinner, Chiang Xiao and ng Xinian were ready to leave.
Now, Old ng didn’t dare to ask them to stay for a few more days.
Given the situation, it’s better if they go back.
When they reached the yard, ng Chaojun suddenly called out to their backs, "Once my illness is treated, I’ll investigate it thoroughly."
As for what to investigate, he didn’t say, but everyone knew.
ng Xinian just paused for a mont after hearing this, and then continued walking without even looking back.
On the way back, Chiang Xiao didn’t feel like bothering him.
They remained silent all the way until they reached the doorstep, where she could hear the phone ringing incessantly.
"Brother Xinian, I’m going in to get the phone first!"
Chiang Xiao quickly got out of the car and rushed to unlock the door, just making it in ti to answer the call.
"Sister, just got ho? I’ve already called twice."
Cheng Cheng’s voice.
Chiang Xiao’s heart tightened, "What’s happened?"
Cheng Cheng on the other end had a dark face.
Is he now associated with the word trouble?
This was simply disgraceful.
"Nothing’s wrong! Everything’s fine!"
Chiang Xiao sighed in relief, "Then why use that tone?"
Soone might think she offended him.
"Wish
well, don’t just ask if sothing’s wrong every ti you pick up the phone."
Chiang Xiao sneered, "Who’s making you so careless?"
